3. Quinn -- I'd say probably his best game he has ever played. He made metres from dummy half, kept the legs driving. Scored two legitimate tries with a third disallowed unfortunately. He really ran circles around Darren Albert, thanks largely to....
2. Johns -- .... whose game is certainly improving. We might have thought that he would suddenly explode out of his shell, that everything would return to normal all at once. Alas, that is not the case. But he is getting some crucial things back: defensively he is very solid, his passing game is getting more crisp by the week, and his involvement is right up there (he seems to have a hand in everything). The only major area still down is his kicking -- too many kicks straight to the fullback, and one (or two) dead in-goal. The couple of bombs that they tortured the Sharks fullback with, though, were tremendous... but the kicks in the previous 60 mins probably weren't too flash by his standards.
1. Carney -- did a lot of crabbing sideways, but also managed to drive us forward. It was the key to our success (albeit without two points) last night -- dummy-half running was what gave us momentum and really caught the Sharks off-guard. Brian had one of his better games last night.
There are several unlucky ones, most obviously Josh Perry. He performed well again this week, but without a lot of the errors. I still counted two penalties that he was the culprit in, but there may have been more. If he gets this nonsense out of his game, he puts his name back up there as an Origin bencher... not this year, but certainly next year.
